About Me

My photo
Teresa Wilson Rogers
I'm an avid reader of many, many years who loves to read and review books. I'm also an amateur genealogist, with my roots in Southern Illinois and living in South Florida for many years. I'm fascinated with those who came before and the history they left behind. I can't stay out of the antique stores and love collecting old postcards and photographs. I just can't resist buying those discarded orphan pictures of "other people's ancestors." I welcome comments or you can email me at tyrogers31@gmail.com. Thanks for stopping by!
